(a) Ptolemy[8] (b) NI LabVIEW[9] Figure 1. Examples of Graphical Programming Languages based on Data Flow ParadigmAs it can be seen in figure 1, almost all the true graphical programming languages use a blockdiagram format that coincides with the way engineering students are taught algorithms anddesigns. This makes it easy for them to translate the theory they learn in class to actualexperiments that run on hardware. Graphical programming also presents a “black box” approachto targeting common hardware platforms. As it can be seen in

To facilitate describing thissection we us a pilot course like Data Communications and Networking as an example. When amessage is sent from point A to B, the simulated model can project animation of the flowbetween the two points. Depending which portion of the course is under focus, the details of thecommunication pattern are projected.
